Corset Lampshade

A lamp that looks like a corset, my submission for the contest.

I bought a lampshade from a charity shop (nasty green thing [link] ) just for the nice shape of the frame, ripped off all the fabric and re-covered the wire frame. I wanted to use the original fabric as a template, but it had been steamed and streched into shape.

Red is habutae, black 'boning channels' are satin ribbon and yes, they are real suspender clips. I thought they would add to the corset look.
